Personal message
The Animal Welfare Society of South Africa and Mdzananda Animal Clinic are teaming up to fight the recent influx of parvovirus patients at our clinics and we need YOUR help.
Last month the Mdzananda Animal Clinic experienced a 321% increase in parvo patients. On average 14 patients are seen per month. October saw 45 patients. The Animal Welfare Society of South Africa has also reported a significant increase in parvo infected patients.
It costs around R6 500 to treat one patient for parvovirus and our clinics are struggling to keep up financially with the number of cases we are getting. Please make a donation and help us reach our target of raising R50 000.
The canine parvovirus is a highly contagious viral illness that affects dogs. It spreads through the feces of infected dogs and is often fatal. Common symptoms of an infected dog includes vomiting, diarrhea (with a very distinct smell), lethargy and loss of appetite. If not treated in time the virus is fatal.
One donor will stand the chance of winning a PAWSOME hamper of goodies.
